If you can’t flush them, why are they called “flushable”?
In: 1662
Everything that should go down the toilet dissolves. When it comes into contact with water (and especially with a little mixing, like during the flushing process) it will break down into smaller pieces. If it doesn’t break down into smaller pieces very well or quickly enough, it could get stuck and plug things up. So-called flushable wipes don’t dissolve very well.
Let’s try an experiment! Let’s put toilet paper and ‘flushable’ wipes in separate glasses of water and see how long it takes each to dissolve!
(My god, people, it’s called explain like I’m FIVE. You make me think that the last five year old you encountered was yourself.)
